Name that gun!

[Nyles]

And Markost gets it.

Funny thing is, the Huot was actually a surprisingly effective weapon, considering it's a Ross rifle converted to a machine gun. I read the original report on the thing from 1918, and it actually beat the Lewis in almost every test they put them through, including (amazingly) reliability. If WW1 had lasted into 1919 we were going to ditch the Lewis for the Huot.

I'm sure budget was a factor, considering we still had hundreds of thousands of Rosses on inventory and no good use for them, and it was a hell of alot cheaper to convert them to Huots than to buy more Lewis guns, but the testing data was actually pretty solid.
